Interesting and important resutls!
Hello! My name is Anna-Carin Olin and I work with a new methd to collect exhaled air which I think is more efficient than EBC. It would be very interesting to compare the cytokine levels in our samples compared with EBC. What kind of EBC sampling equipment did you use? I would very much like to have a copy of your poster, would that be possible? Anna-Carin Olin MD, Dept of occupational and environmental mdicine, Gothenburg sweden. anna-carin.olin@amm.gu.se
